Where to Drink on the Cheap in DC

Where to Drink on the Cheap in DC Washington Reviews

DC is not a cheap city, especially when it comes to nightlife. Unless they're already coming here from Manhattan, many people experience sticker shock when they go to a bar that doesn't even look all that special, and get charged upwards of $5 for a domestic beer. As a resident of DC, who HATES being overcharged for alcohol, I have made it my mission to seek out the best places to drink for cheap, even outside of happy hour. These are places without pretension, and they all tend to get a little rowdy at times. Here they are, with their dirt cheap, non-happy hour specialties included (remember that these places are even cheaper at happy hour):

Rail drinks are all cheap at these places at happy hour! Not sure about their non-happy hour prices for liquor, but I can't imagine they'd be expensive. Solly's, for example, makes the strongest G&T on U Street, and I don't think they charge more than $5!
